The Stefan Cooke x Mulberry collaboration combines Stefan Cooke’s unique creative lens with Mulberry’s Made to Last ethos to create a bespoke collection which champions British craftsmanship. Four of Stefan Cooke’s signature design codes – Bows, Swing, Braid, and Slash – are applied to the collection using meticulous techniques, with each style transformed by Mulberry’s artisans in the UK into one-off pieces that redefine the perception of pre-loved today.
First debuted during Stefan Cooke’s SS24 show at London Fashion Week in September 2023, this new drop launches with an installation at Dover Street Market on Friday, 16th February giving centre stage to circular fashion for a second consecutive London Fashion Week. The collaboration, which is part of the Mulberry Editions series, champions pre-loved pieces from Mulberry’s circularity programme, The Mulberry Exchange. It continues the brand’s exploration of what sustainable craft can mean in the 21st century – with a focus on low-impact manufacturing and innovative sourcing.
A pop motif of vintage foam fingers, long collected by the duo, are blown up to new proportions for the sculptural installation. Evocative of American sports stadium souvenirs, the unique space brings to life inspirations from Stefan Cooke's SS24 collection to showcase the collaboration.
“We are incredibly excited to continue our partnership with Mulberry through this second capsule which we’re proud to unveil exclusively at Dover Street Market. It is a perfect continuation of a genuine collaboration – bringing together our shared passion for craftsmanship and redefining pre-loved styles already imbued with years of history.” – Stefan Cooke.
The 32-piece DSM Exclusive pre-loved capsule will be available at Dover Street Market and on the DSML E-SHOP on Friday, 16th February, DSM Beijing on Saturday, 24th February and DSM Ginza in March 2024.
